Okay, breastfeeding may seem a little overwhelming, but you’re going to love these products designed to make it easier.

Milk Trays

These are super handy, no matter how crazy they look. You fill the trays with expressed breast milk, freeze, and then use as many one-ounce sticks as you need to fill a bottle—you’ll never have to see an annoying storage bag again.

Medela Pump In Style Advanced

Portable and efficient, this is the pump most moms swear by. Plug it in or let it run on batteries; either way, Medela’s signature two-phase expression technology will express more milk in less time. With included accessories like bottles, breast shields and an ice pack, this system offers more than most pumps. Available in three portable versions: the on-the-go tote, metro bag and backpack.

KoalaKin Hands-Free Nursing Pouch

Hands-free nursing? Say what? Yup, it's true—the KoalaKin nursing pouch makes breastfeeding that much easier. The strap supports baby so that you don't have to cradle her. And when you switch sides, simply adjust the shoulder buckles with a click.

Lansinoh HPA Lanolin

Prevent painful cracking by smoothing on a nipple moisturizer. We love this one because it’s made from refined lanolin, a fatty substance naturally found in sheep’s wool (no preservatives or additives), so you don’t have to wipe it off before a feeding.
